Note investors don't have a general liability like real estate investors. However, what if you own a Contract for Deed? Do you have liability, even if the contract says you do not? This is a critical issue for all Contracts for Deeds (Land Contracts) owners to understand.

I interview expert Beth Boisseau-Coots of JB Lloyd's Insurance in this episode. She will explain the policies for real estate investors, note investors, and the specialty products you need.

This is an eye-opening interview that nobody else in the industry talks about! How do I know that? I haven't seen anyone talk or write about it, and because Beth has been shouting it from the mountain tops, people simply aren't hearing her and, as a result, going without proper coverage. The good news is that she is on a mission to ensure that individuals and servicing companies understand the appropriate coverage in an evolving industry.

If you own a contract for deed, get ready to take some notes and get on the phone to change your policies!
